ISBN: 9780802065452 / Angielski / Miękka / 1984 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1984 George Orwell described a future theocracy that demanded unity at all costs, and in which all independent thought would be eradicated.

Crazy Gran
ISBN: 9781681812397 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 356 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

The New York publishers deemed it to be "implausible." After 9/11, the novelist incorporated the attack on the WTC and resubmitted the...

Streaking! The Collected Poems of Gary Botting - Revised Edition
ISBN: 9781681814193 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Half a century ago, Canadian poet Gary Botting pioneered the use of shaped poetry to achieve visual effects often experienced by the reader as vertigo.

In Streaking The Collected Poems of Gary Botting, the poet explores themes of unabashed sensuality in a variety of forms, from haikus, sonnets, odes, and ballads to his full-length poetic drama, Prometheus Rebound. His acerbic wit finds voice in poetic sequences such...
